Case report: vertebral foreign body granuloma mimicking a skeletal metastasis.
Skeletal Radiology 2018 June
Intraosseous foreign body granuloma formation related to migrated surgical material is a rarely reported condition with variable imaging appearance. In this case report, we describe a foreign body granuloma that occurred in a lumbar vertebral body one level above a prior surgical fusion. The lytic appearance mimicked a skeletal metastasis in a 65-year-old patient with recently diagnosed renal cell carcinoma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a lumbar vertebral foreign body granuloma occurring distant from the site of surgery, indistinguishable from skeletal metastasis on radiologic examination.
